RescueTech

Two weeks ago my 2 TBD hard drive got corrupted and deleted all the files. I am a photographer and had undelivered wedding and portrait photos in the drive. I didnt wanna take chances and was willing to pay the ridiculous price the recovery places charge… Then I found Jose the Rescue Tech here and thought I’d give him a call to see if he knows his stuff. He sounded very confident and knows what he was talking about so I brought it to him, was hesitant at first since he didn’t have his own shop and had to drive to his place but I’m glad I did!
He recovered all my files a few days after and charged me 50 dollars less than what shops usually charge!
I owe this guy alot! And will recommend him to anyone I know who needs help.

Last night my computer froze, and I had to do a hard shut down. Then it wouldn’t turn on. The screen stayed black, and I could hear some noise coming from the innards of the laptop, but nothing happened.
My laptop is a Lenovo purchased in 2007. It’s old, but I love that workhorse. I thought it was dead. After spending hours Unilocaling computer repair and data recovery places, and also googling how to retrieve data from a dead computer, I decided to go to Jose.
I picked him over 3 other top-​rated contenders for one reason and one reason only: he opened at 8:00 am on a Saturday. LOL. And I wasn’t planning on leaving my laptop anywhere, as I needed an immediate fix, so I wasn’t too worried about him forgetting about my computer.
As I was driving up to his house, I began to doubt my decision. He works from his home and asked to see the laptop as we were standing on the porch. Um, okay.
Well, guess what? He fixed my computer in less than five minutes. Apparently he knows his stuff. Lol
Best part, he didn’t charge me.
I’ve found an honest, reliable computer guy, wahoo!
Thanks, Jose!
BTW, it’s my birthday today. This just made it go from crappy to fabulous

DO NOT GO TO THIS «Repair man»
My laptop was experiencing symptoms of a virus so I called this person to fix my laptop he had originally told me the problem and that it would take $ 40 to fix and it would be fixed soon. I trusted this person with my laptop weeks before I stared my fall semester in college and each time I would ask about any progress he gave me some sort of excuse such as «family drama» or «it fell thru the cracks». Clearly my laptop and his business isn’t his priority he claimed it would be ready «tomorrow» and so on. but that was not the case I’m already halfway into my school semester and I just had to pick it up 4 months of him having custody of my computer and he didn’t fix anything instead he gave it back to me in a worse condition than I gave it to him with more problems and all of the labels stripped off which was unnecessary. I also had to remind him I brought it in with a case since he just gave me back the laptop and charger he was obviously trying to steal my laptop’s case.
This whole experience was ridiculous, unproductive, and highly unprofessional. This person had my laptop for more than 4 months and NOTHING WAS FIXED during that whole time!
PLEASE AVOID what I went through and go to a professional place or person this gimmick will harm your computer to try and milk more money out of you he is not to be trusted and will steal your accessories!

My laptop’s hard drive stopped working and I got it replaced at the Apple store in Cerritos. Unfortunately, Apple doesn’t do data recovery. Luckily, I found this business. This guy will beat all prices. This guy’s work is superb and the prices are very very cheap. If u need data recovery, this is the place to go.

Had problem with my tower communicating with my monitor, so I couldn’t get online. Went on Unilocal and found Rescue Tech. Jose had his hands full, but said he’d call back, which he did and gave me the info to try and fix it myself. When that didn’t work, he worked on my computer at his shop and fixed the problem. Turns out it was my monitor that wasn’t working so Jose gave me another monitor (a digital one which is bigger and clearer than my old analog one) and he cleaned out all the junk on my computer which helped speed it up. I was very pleased with the respect I got from Jose and with his work. Would use him again in a heartbeat…

My computer was crashing frequently, and Jose debugged all the malware and virus that was plaguing it. His service was fast, inexpensive, and pleasant. I definitely recommend Jose to anyone with computer problems.

So when I called their number, some guy had answered. As a prospective customer, telephone presence is everything; the guy sounded like I had woke him, he answered «hello», he didn’t even greet me with his business name– I had to ask if this was ‘RescueTech’. Anyway, it took him a little too long to respond yes, even though he eventually did. Then I asked again, and he took a slight pause…
I hung up/​I felt like i was an inconvenience without even stepping into the place… I’d rather take my business to a place where I am made priority.

I gave Jose my old external hard drive that had four years worth of my work. The prognosis was pretty bad, but Jose is a LIFE SAVER. He will take good care of your stuff and go over and beyond to get the job done. Excellent service and great rates. I highly recommend him!

Can’t believe I forgot to write this review!
About 6 months ago I was recording some music for a band and the day before our last recording session the fan on my macbook gave out, causing some overheating issues… Luckily I found rescue tech and he fixed my laptop within 15 mins.
The second time I called rescue tech I had some designs I needed to submit by the end of the night (procrastination :)) but my macbook suddenly stopped responding after plugging in an after market USB cable (don’t plug cheap cables into your nice MacBooks). He fixed that issue in under 10 mins. He definitely rescued me a couple times rescue tech for life!

Great service, got my computer issue resolved the same evening.

All the reviews are true!
The ‘geniuses’ at the apple store couldn’t fix my crashed hard drive on my macbook. I was ready to write off the files that i hadn’t backed up for the simple fact that i thought they were unrecoverable.
I contacted Jose on a whim and he saved the day. He was able to recover my files, upgrade my laptop, and installed a couple extras.
5 stars to the REAL genius! Will definitely be back.
Good job my man!

I should have written this a few months ago, but better late than never. My pc had a virus. I went to Geek Squad for repair. They wanted me to sign up for some annual membership of $ 200. They said it would take up to 5 days to complete job Ridiculous!
In the parking lot I got Jose’s number from Unilocal.I called, told him the problem. He new exactly what was wrong, unlike Ms. Clueless at Best Buy. He told me how to fix it. I told him I was in a parking lot, could I call him when I got home, yes. When I got home I noticed he texted me instructions on how to repair problem. I did, and problem solved. I called to thank him and offer to pay. He said don’t worry about, happy to help.
This guy is not only an excellent tech but an honest man.
If you need help with your pc do not hesitate, call him.

When my Apple Macbook’s track pad and mouse cursor started acting up, I turned to Unilocal to find a local repair person.
Seeing the excellent reviews on Rescue Tech, I called. Jose answered and was very professional yet friendly.
He suggested I drop the laptop off at his house. Really nice guy, and seems very honest.
A couple days later he called to say the computer was ready. No charge.
He fixed the problem, and didn’t even charge for his time.
Based on his friendliness, honesty and professionalism — I’m giving Jose a very strong FIVE STARS!
I will definitely be using his services again when I need computer work.
HIGHLY recommended!

Speedy, friendly, and excellent.
I was so scared when my external hard drive crashed, but he got all the data recovered, and even lent me his hard drive while I got mine replaced. Awesome. :-) The service is at his house though, so bring a friend if you think you’ll get antsy like me!

So I’m updating a review because i came back to Jose to repair my laptop again and this was my experience with him.
So the same problem happened the last time i left my laptop with Jose (Broken AC Adapter on my laptop). I decided not to take it to him because he had already repaired it and the repair only lasted about 2 – 3 months, he told me he soldered it so i know what happened. I wanted the part replaced now, so i went with my local laptop store (
). They repaired it in 1 week ½ and i went on my way until finally one night the ac adapter BROKE, I got so mad at myself and I didn’t have 150 dollars (quoted by notebookshop last repair) to go and get it fixed so I called Jose and told him to repair it, he decided to replace the part and he charged me 90 dollars less than that shop. Jose took awhile to repair my laptop due to an Ebay Seller sending him the wrong part (Ironic, just keep reading why) so instead of taking 1 week it took 3 weeks and he finally replaced the part, i got fishy and all but the guy lives with his wife and kids you think he’s going to be stupid to steal a laptop and or f$ck you over. Anyways finally I pick up my laptop and we do the transaction 65 $ for the repair (included the part, GREAT DEAL NO?). Jose informs me that the last person who repaired my laptop never changed the part, instead he tells me they fixed it with glue. I was so infuriated by my discovery but Jose told me what to do, to try to get a refund and I went on my way, got home and he had installed goodies to my laptop and had told me to do a defrag (this guy goes the extra mile). Finally i visit the
factory by my house and seriously tell them everything Jose told me about his findings, the shop tried to rub it off making lame excuses but finally they refunded me 100 dollars out of the 150 and i walked away a happy man.
The ironic thing about the part is that the shops excuse was that they got the wrong part (Like Jose) so instead they soldered it and glued the part… WTF??? Jose works from his house and he did 3 times the better job those guys did that work for a big company…
The lady with the last review was really impatient or something, she has made false accusations. Jose works from his house he has a wife and is about to have a kid (chit chat after he repaired my laptop the 2^nd time) you seriously thing a guy will rip you off when you know where he lives? He’s honest with his work and honestly he made me wait long but it’s excusable and he got the job done right. I’d rather wait 3 weeks then have a professional lie to me to my face charge me a hefty price.
If you need a job done Jose is the guy, he will do the job as fast as possible and he will always be honest with his work.
This review has been 2 weeks overdue i just barely got the chance to write it.
Thanks Jose ;)!

This review is long overdue. 4 years ago I was working for a project management firm and one of our office personnel plugged a high current power supply into the external drive back up system. The drive started smoking and shut off. I found Jose via Craigslist before he became RescueTech. At that time, he was unable to recover the fried hard drive, so I gave up on the drive and it’s important data it held. One year later, Jose surprises me with an email stating that the drive data was recovered and ready. Prior to Jose, I was quoted on average $ 1000-​$ 3000 to recover the data in a special lab. I was billed only two hundred! I’m not sure of Jose’s rates now but he was very honest and I feel anyone that is honest and only bills for something he can fix, is someone that deserves a 5 star review so people know where to go.

I was having a lot of trouble with my laptop, I wanted someone who could fix the problem inexpensively. I found Jose through this site, and I couldn’t be happier. It was very cheap to de-​bug my computer, upgrade the software, and he got it done really quick. Jose is a very nice guy, very professional, and honest. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to get their computers worked on.

Fast, efficient, reliable, honest, and low cost. Jose is incredible. I had a file that was stuck in an old, non-​functioning computer. I dropped off my computer and within a few minutes I had my file emailed to me ready to print. I was blown away.
The service I received was extremely friendly and communication was great. Jose will fix any computer issue and I fully endorse his quality of work.

We hired Jose to undertake a very large group of tasks in our office (consisting of equipment deployment, general electronic setup and computer software setup) and he handled every portion of the process promptly, professionally and exceeded every expectation. We were presented with a detailed plan and timeline and he met absolutely ever milestone that we were presented with.
Looking forward to using Rescue Tech for all of our future IT needs.

Jose replaced our faulty PS3 Blu-​Ray drive in about 15 min while we watched! The drive to Norwalk from Redondo was great practice for my 15−½yr old son who’s work’n on getting his drivers license!
Thanks again Jose!
